Thank you! I'm very happy you like him. I appreciate the comment. Dan

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it. It's always nice to hear from you. Dan

I'm sorry. It's a long story, but I lost my KZread channel. When I got it back I lost all of my subscribers, almost five thousand of them. So none of them, like you, got any notice about this new video. I'm so glad you found it. Thank you for your support. Dan

You are a crazy musician John! I'm glad you found me. I accidentally erased my KZread channel a few weeks ago when I erased a Google profile. It was a nightmare. I was able to retrieve my videos but lost all of my subscribers, 4,500 of them. So none of my friends have been notified of my new video. Thank you for you support. You are always too kind. Dan

Hey Stella, Your alien scull....THAT is cool. Thank you as always. Dan

Hey there. Actually, the scales are also cloth. After sculpting with paper mache I add a "skin" of cloth (old bed sheets as you mentioned) dipped in white glue. I call the process "cloth mache" for lack of a better term. Good luck! Have some fun! Dan

Thank you. I have made birds.  I used colored feathers from hobby supply stores and hot glue. I appreciate the nice comment. Dan

You can see this build on my blog. Just follow the link under the video. That will help you more than my explanation here I think. Good luck. Dan

My goodness this is amazing. Your dragon videos are my inspiration for my house decorating! Thank you for sharing!

Hi there, I've made several birds over the years. I just haven't done any videos of them. But perhaps..... Thank you for stopping by. Dan

your cat shows up in so many of your videos, i still love them ALL, you are an amazing person for doing all this, you are so talented, keep on making them

You have inspired my 2 boys aged 7 and 9 to do a paper mache dragon for their school "family Art" competition!! Thank you for sharing all your fantastic Paper mache art! It's amazing! :)

This is absolutely perfect! Your talent is amazing!! I love your work so much! It's so nice and inspirational to watch these videos. Thank you for sharing them with us. Cheers from Brazil

Hey again, I think it's really an illusion with the camera. It isn't that smooth if you were to see it in person. The one thing that helps is to build tension into the tape. I touch on end of the tape and then pull the tape across. It gets pretty tight that way. Good luck Dan

Wow Christian, I'm very flattered! Yes, this is one of "Dani's dragons". My interpretation after reading the books and watching the TV series. Thank you again. Dan

I use polymer clay, like Super-Sculpy or Fimo for teeth and claws. Spikes are just wire, paper and tape. There is much more information on my site and I show many sculptures being made on my blog. Just follow the links under the video. Dan

I got those eyes at glasseyes (dot com). They are in the UK. But I altered the a bit. I wanted some white around the red, so I ground some of the paint off and put white in. I think they were around 20mm. Dan
